Kerala Trance Binary LED Watch

Wacky — 26 January 2006

Ready to show your nerd pride? Then pick up the new Kerala Trance watch. This LED watch displays the time in… binary.

The Kerala Trance has a 4 bit row on the top to display the hours and a 8 bit row on the bottom to display the minutes. Of course, since unlike computers, our brains do not operate in binary, it’ll take a little binary training to learn how to read the watch.

Luckily, Kerala has included arabic numbers below each of the LED’s for you non-binary freaks to read. Just add up the numbers below the LEDs in that row to get the hours or minutes.

This watch will keep your brain trained, looks stylish, is water resistant, and guaranteed to get your ass kicked after school. Available now from Firebox for £99.95 or around $180.

Oh and for my quick nerd comment, neither 24 nor 60 are powers of 2. Defeating any coolness behind a binary watch. And by saying that, defeating any coolness behind me.

    sorry, but this watch does not display the time in binary… It’s actually BCD.
